This 11 year old blend of even parts Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot comes from a 50+ year old vines in the gravel banks of north eastern Italy. The Vencjar is the Figeac of Friuli with excellent,high class earthiness tied to dark plum & currant fruit. The wine was great with Cinnamon's homemade gnocchi! — 11 years ago

安定のうまさです。 — 10 years ago
Warm nose. Elegant, balanced, aged to a velvety round taste. From the same owners of Chateau Figeac. Merlot and Cabernet Franc on almost equal percentages, and a little bit of Cabernet Sauvignon. Had the 2004 vintage with steak. — 10 years ago
Needed an hour to open up, but was worth the wait. Great mouth feel, well balanced, will only get better — 11 years ago
Fresh, floral, spicy — 11 years ago
Bright red succulent fruit. Cassis, touch of tobacco but very subtle. Outstanding length of acidity, dusty dry tannins. Layers of flavours, with an impressive long aftertaste. 92+ points. — 11 years ago
Big, smooth, amazing flavor — 12 years ago

The location is prime. Pure and good level of minerality and good fruit just missing the level of blue and blackfruit. Very balance and the overall tannin and acidic feel is good — 9 years ago
